Awww, that little goat is adorable! Way too cute to be hanging out with a bunch of gross lads. Still, excellent work Bravo! clapping

I am SO jealous of the goat

way to go sir, outstanding

Brilliant as always Bravo! I can never figure out how you get your lads to dress up in such ridiculous costumes!

Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2011 10:37 am

these are some great pictures - I hate to say "well done" to lads so "well done" to you instead.

Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2011 2:18 pm

Absolutely fantastic. Poor little goat tied to a concrete block. PETA might have a problem with that!

To give a little background this lad Brother Chez felt like he was screwed by the church since he did not get his money for his past projects. My church character felt sorry for him and offered to work out a “under the table” deal for him. I told him I was approached by an eccentric wealthy donor who wanted to make a $100,000 donation to a worthy person in Africa. The rich donor is the heir to the Wizard of Oz Empire and wanted me to find candidates to submit a photo essay to decide who gets the money. So basically I am fixing the contest to ensure Brother Chez gets the money. Of course like always there are problems…

I thought I would go ahead and post the emails between the lad and I after he submitted the second round of pictures.

Quote:

Good day Brother Chez,

Sorry for the delay. It has been very difficult to reach the donor on the phone. I was finally able to catch up with him moments ago. He was absolutely thrilled with your photo essay submission! There is however a problem. The donor has requested I submit to him one more photo essay from a different contributor. I explained that the other submissions I received were not up to my standards and yours was the best so I only sent yours. He is still insisting I send him another photo essay before he awards you the $100,000. I do not know what to do. My whole plan was to just submit yours and no one else’s so you would be sure to win. I really am at a lost as to what to do. I haven’t even spoken to anyone else about this project just you. Do you have any ideas? I am sure we can figure out a resolution. Please return with your thoughts. Sorry I was not expecting this.

Your friend in Christ,
Pete

Subject: AM NOT HAPPY

Dear Pete,

I don’t understand you here you promise me this job and now you are planning to give it out again. And you are now telling me that you have not spoken to any one else about the project. What i understand is that you should give it to my friend Nwachukwu Fredrick i told you off. But i know that it will not be easy for him to get the items for the project. I promise my teams that the money will be coming this week and i can't go back to them again for help me for free this time. So i advice if you can send me small money to get the items done for my friend Brother Nmchuck Fred. Please get back to me again today to know what your plans it.BUT I AM NOT HAPPY WITH ALL THIS.

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

Brother Chez,
Why are you upset with me? I am just trying to help you! This was not part of my plan at all. I thought the Donor would simple accept the photos I sent him. I had no idea he would demand to see two submissions. I am quite upset you would blame me. All I am doing is trying to help you and I am taking all the risk here. I could be in serious trouble if it was found out that I cheated on this by only allowing you to submit pictures for the project. I could even be sent to jail!

Your friend in Christ,
Pete

Subject: Am Sorry
Dear Pete,

I am not happy with my self and not you Dr. Pete, And i understand the help you are giving me here. I can not blame you for anything. So here is my plans once again, you should email the work to Numchuck Fred. Or i should inform my teams that you need a different copy of the project again? Am waiting for your reply again today.

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

Dear Pete,

I am very very sorry mailing you at that time, and i can not be blaming you for giving me the project personal. And I also understand the risk you are taking helping me out here. Please can you mail me to know what your plans here are? I am waiting.

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

Dear Brother Chez,

Thank you and I'm sorry if I misunderstood your email. We just need another set of pictures that I can send the donor. What I will do is
just give him numbers. So I'll tell him this is number 1 and then number 2. Then when he picks the winner I'll give him your name. I did not give him your name when I sent your pictures so this will work. Do you have someone that could do these? Maybe you can offer them a
small portion of the $100,000.

Don't worry we will get this all worked out by the grace of God!

Your friend in Christ,
Pete

Dear Pete,

Yes i have a new teams that can do the work for me and there start today with the work, I hope to get the new pictures to you by the end of tomorrow.

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

Good day Brother Chez,
That is great news. I have called the donor and told him I will have the second submission to him tomorrow. He has promised to review them then to make his decision. It took a little begging on my part since he was planning on skiing. We should still be able to get you the payment before Christmas!

Your friend in Christ,
Pete

Dear Pete,

Thanks for all the help you are giving me here and i promise my old and new teams that i hope to get them paid before Christmas too. I hope that will work out?

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

Dear Pete,

Here are the new requested pictures I promise to send today. So I will be waiting to hear from you?

Yours Beloved in Christ,

Brother.Chez

So I am assuming there was some lad/accomplice recycling since Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion have mask on in these but that’s a new Dorothy the lad owes money to.

Wow. Fantastic baiting, and noteworthy work on those outfits. Brother Chez and his crew should apply for a costume design job. Maybe there are scholarship possibilities for his talents?

The tin lad looks like a cross between a Minuteman missile & Ned Kelly.

This whole Oz deal gets better & better!

Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 6:16 pm

Maybe they need to send another photo with them in costume in front of a crowd like in a play. also they are missing one character. the wicked witch of the West in her black dress. GREAT Baiting again. clapping

fantastic, but I claim intellectual property theft Very Happy

that's one of MY goats and that is exactly the same corner of the yard and the same fence as in my nativity scene

no wonder they are all covering their faces Very Happy

^^I think the old disk brake goat holder was recycled too. These lads Christmas is not going to be too merry.

Unbelievable work on both sides. I am awestruck. First cast should win though because Toto was definitely black.

I was thinking the same thing. I sent him this to replicate.

And got this back.. I have to admit I'm pretty disappointed in the effort. NO GREEN MAKEUP!

SO GREAT!

Wonderful wonderful
